Two hundred years and counting have passed since the birth of the modern critical study of Jewish history and heritage. Its beginnings are usually attributed to a small circle of Jewish intellectuals, some of them students at the newly established University of Berlin, who pursued a new scholarly project that came to be called the Wissenschaft des Judentums (WdJ). Over the course of the ensuing two centuries, WdJ evolved in scope and purpose, taking on more diverse subjects and gradually assuming a major role within modern Jewish identity.
